Sunday Brant invited me on a fishing trip off Palm Beach Island. The crew included Tia, one of our neighbors, her brother Tom, her father, Brant, me and of course the charter captain (who was incredible). So we took a small boat out through some pretty heavy breakwater. Some waves were around 10ft which I completely enjoyed…others…not so much. After about 40 minutes we were beyond the breakwater and in deep enough water to start fishing. The captain broke out the kite, which I’d never seen before. He sent a kite up (we had heavy winds so it was key) and we proceeded to set up three rods to use the system. Each line was attached to the kite line which would release once we got a bite and started to reel in. The kite keeps the line verticle in the water and allows you to fish far off the boat and easily rotate lines in and out from far to close depending on who’s got a fish on. You just have to keep your bobber/marker about 2-3 feet off the water and live bait, about 10 inches long, in the water with the ocean swells. Brant was the first... Continue Reading

Thanksgiving was a bit different this year…in a good way. Of course Wednesday night before the big day was a drunken shitshow (as usual) but we had a great time. Thursday I headed to Boston Market and got Thanksgiving lunch, no big deal. Our friend Rosy invited us (Brant and I) to Jupiter for dinner with her and Regina. They’re a great bunch of friends and we always have great time. Thanks guys for making Thanksgiving something to remember. Of course hitting Dirty Martini in PGA on the way home made parts hard to remember but I haven’t laughed that... Continue Reading

Sunday night I made the 70 mile trek down to South Beach to meet up with my old friend Jay and his girlfriend, Stacy. It was so great to see him again. It’s been at least five years since the last time we hung out and he only lives 4 hours away in Tampa, FL. So I geared up, hopped on the motorcycle and headed down to Joe’s Stone Crab at the south end of South Beach, right next to Nikki Beach. We had a couple beers, caught up and had some stone crab / oysters. For those of you... Continue Reading

Yeah, so once again there’s not much really going on. I’ve been spending an enormous amount of time with the puppy during the day, hitting the gym at night and really beginning to hate Daylight Savings time (once again). The weather’s been mildly overcast the last few days yet warm, the pool is back open and my Netflix que is looking pretty good. Unfortunately I woke up this morning at 4am for no good reason so I thought I’d update the blog.... Permalink

So for the past two weeks I thought I’d give a new diet a try, you know just to get rid of the extra weight around my waist and a few other things. It’s the “Slow Carb Diet” and so far it’s been interesting. The basics are no white anything…rice, bread, pasta, sugar, fruits (sugar) or dairy. what you can eat are beans, meats, vegitables and the all important red wine. For the past two weeks I’ve been living off of black beans, chicken, eggs (hard boiled and egg white omelets with spinach) salsa, diced tomatoes, steamed veggies, water, couple... Continue Reading

So yeah…this happened. I finally got the balls and the opportunity to get a half sleeve tattoo on my right arm. My friend Kelly hooked me up with Horitoyo to do the tattoo in trade. A website for a tattoo since his old site needs some serious updating. He’s a traditional Japanese Tattoo artists, specializing in Tebori tattoos. I didn’t get the Tebori (big ass needle). He’s a well known and very skilled artist in Japan so when the opportunity came up, I said…”sure, why not?” So on Monday of this week he came to my house to get started.... Continue Reading

The new 610 Clematis website is up and running great. There is still a few items I need to work on and I have to retake some of the photography throughout the building but overall it came out great. Thanks to the 610 Board of Directors for letting me spruce up out online presence. I love living here. To check out the new and updated website click here: http://www.610clematisstreet.com/...

This is Winston, my neighbor’s little King Charles puppy. 2 months old and cute as hell. I’ve agreed to take care of him from time to time, so now I have a little buddy to hang out with during the day which is great since I’m pretty much by myself all day. We’re still in the pee-pad phase of training but he’s been fantastic. Just sleeps in his little bed next to my desk as I work. For lunch we chill on the couch and watch tv and take a nap. He still needs a few shots before I can... Continue Reading
